The Woman in the Water

Once upon a time there was a family. The family had a pool in the backyard where the kids played everyday. One day the youngest son Jeremy was swimming by himself in the pool. He dived under the water,
“Jeremy?” Jeremy opened his tiny eyes, “ello?”
“Come see me” “Where are you?” “I’m right here” and then Jeremy saw here she looked like a pretty mermaid like he had seen on tv.
“What’s your name mermaid?” Jeremy asked.
“My name is Lady Death(pronounced Deeth) and I want to be you friend”Lady Death replied. “I be your friend”Jeremy said in his little voice. ” Will you be my friend forever?”Death asked slyly. “Otay”
So Jeremy went to the bottom of the pool and became Lady Death’s friend, forever.
